Siphon disc

ABSTRACT

This device consists primarily of a disc having a cone attached thereto with an offset plastic tube extending through the base wall of the cone and through the disc portion of the device so as to siphon liquids by the tube means, into a non collapsable container by vacuum being applied to the upper end of the cone.

UNITED STATES PATENTS 2 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures 1,591,932 7/1926 Young 141/8 III:- I rllnnlnm SIPIION DISC This invention relates to siphon devices, and more particularly to a siphon disc device.

It is therefore the principal object of the device to provide a siphon disc device which will be used to siphon liquids into a non collapsable container.

Another object of this invention is to provide a siphon disc device which will have disc, cone and cube means which will be employed with vaccum means to effectively siphon liquids into a jar non collapsable container through the placement of the disc portion of the device over the mouth of the container that is to receive the liquid.

A further object of this invention is to provide a device of the type described, which will have an opening through the cone along its longitudinal axis, the opening of the cone being immediately adjacent to the offset tube extending through the wall of the cone, the projecting portion of the tube being in alignment with the opening of the cone and the disc, the small portion of the cone having a vacuum applied to it by vacuum hose means.

Other objects of the invention are to provide a siphon disc device which is simple in design, inexpensive to manufacture, rugged in construction, easy to use and efficient in operation.

These and other objects will be readily evident upon a study of the following specification and the accompanying drawing, wherein:

FIG. 1 is a side view of the present invention and shown partly broken away.

FIG. 2 is a top plan view of FIG. 1.

According to this invention, a siphon disc device 10 is shown to consist of a circular disc 11 which is of a rigid material. Secured fixedly to the top of disc 11, is a plastic cone 12 which is in the center of disc 11. An opening 13 along the longitudinal axis of cone 12 provides for a vacuum to be applied through device 10. A plastic tube 14 extends angularly through the base l5 Looking now particularly at FIG. 2 of the drawing, it will be seen that the tube 14 is spaced partially away from the opening 13 of cone l2 and vacuum means is applied to device 10 by the placement of the vacuum hose (not shown) over the end 18 portion of cone 12.

In use, the opening 13 is placed in conjunction with end 16 of tube 14, over the mouth of the container that the is to receive the liquid being siphoned. The vacuum hose is placed over the end 18 of cone l2 and the end of tube 14 extending from the base 15 of cone 12, is dipped into the liquid to be siphoned. As the vacuum is applied to end 18 of cone 12, through a differential in pressure, the liquid is drawn through tube 14 and passes downward as indicated by arrow 19, into the non collapsible container. When air appears in tube 14 the vacuum is then turned off and the operation is then completed.

It will be noted that any type vacuum hose may be used and the device 10 should not be used to siphon volatile or explosive liquids.

What I Claim Is:

1. A syphon disc device, comprising in combination, a circular flat disc for placement over a container into which a liquid is intended to be syphoned, a hollow cone affixed upon said disc providing means for attachment to a vacuum hose, a plastic tube carried by said disc and said cone providing flow transfer means for said liquid into said container which is non-collapsible, said cone being affixed upon a center of said disc, said cone having a longitudinal central opening aligning with a similar opening through said disc, said vacuum hose being removably secured over a small end of said cone, said tube extending angularly through a base of said cone and angularly through said disc, a projecting lower end of said tube being aligned with an axis of an tangential edge of said longitudinal opening through said cone and disc.

2. The combination as set forth in claim 1, wherein said projecting lower end of said tube is spaced relaof cone l2 and the end 16 of tube 14 projects angularly tively close below an underside of said disc.
